AMAZON VIRTUE against its type
Built in 2014, it is 4 years newer than the median oil tanker on this register, which was built in 2010 (2,896 vessels with a known build year). At 44,776 gross tonnage it is smaller than 58% of the other 2,841 oil tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 215 oil tankers here under the Greece flag, 6.1% of the 3,548 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 761 other vessels here, 193 of them oil tankers. The returns for 2018–2024 all give Chios as port of registry.
Its 3,019 t of CO₂ for 2024 is 63% below the median of 8,196 t among the 1,808 oil tankers on this register that reported for 2024. Per nautical mile it emitted 290.1 kg CO₂, 29% below the type median of 408.2 kg. It logged 1,040 hours at sea against a median of 2,020 hours for its type that year. 5.6% of its 2024 emissions were at berth; the median for oil tankers was 7.2%. Across 5 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2023 (17,532 t) and the lowest 2024 (3,019 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 46 in 2018 to 33 in 2024 (lower is more efficient). Of the 2 sister ships listed below with a 2024 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2024
Position 513 of 1,566 qualifying oil tankers by EEOI, at the 33rd percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 7.6; this vessel reported 6.3.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 482,281,150 tonne-miles over 10,407 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2024 was 49.8% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2021, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2024, emissions fell 82.8% while distance sailed fell 74.4%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 32.6%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
